Movie Locations

The Isle of Man's varied scenery has featured in many films made on location on the Island

Since 1995, the Isle of Man has been the location of many films,
from the hit comedy Waking Ned to the famous Thomas the Tank Engine
movie, Thomas and the Magic Railroad. In total, over 90
productions have been made here, including many smaller British
movies.

Movies have been shot all over the Island, from Ramsey in the
North to Cregneash in the south, and most places in-between.
Cregneash is a particular favourite, and many locations through the
capital of the island, Douglas, have been used. The best
place to begin exploring is the south of the Island; starting at
Cregneash you can visit the set of Waking Ned and just a short walk
down the road to the Calf Sound, you'll find the location used for
much of Treasure Island. You can visit many of these
locations yourself, and many are accessible by bus.
Alternatively, a number of local companies offer arranged
tours.

The Isle of Man Film Commission produce a map of many of the
locations which have been used in films since they began their
filming initiative in 1995. You can pick up a copy at any of
the Tourist Information Offices.
